I liked this professor he always emailed you back within 48 hours, keeps you up to date on assignments, great course layout for time management, very respectful, has a sense of humor, understanding. Cons timed tests in short amounts of time, lots of work to do. I would recommend him overall.

Comment:

The first few tests were tough. He's very specific about certain details (costal vs. hyaline, for example). About halfway, though, I began to learn how he tested and graded. I was able to predict what the quizzes would be on and what details would be on the test. Many of his later assignments are easy A's, but the early material is a challenge.

Alothough I was a mess durning my first A&P class I did pass with a B!!! His test are tough but he does go over everything he does, took me some time to figure it out because Im a overthink and his test are multiple choice. I did enjoy his lectures and buying a recorder help me with my studies.. I am taking him again this coming semester for A&P2!

OVERALL, HE IS A GREAT PROFESSOR. HE GIVES A LOT OF QUIZZES AND HIS TESTS ARE EXTREMELY HARD. DO NOT SKIP CLASS, SINCE YOU WILL MISS A LOT OF MATERIAL, ESPECIALLY IF YOU DO A SUMMER COURSE WITH HIM. HE DOES JUMP AROUND A LOT, BUT HE HAS A REASON FOR WHY HE DOES IT AND EXPLAINS THE MATERIAL VERY WELL. HE HAS A GREAT SENSE OF HUMOR AND ENTERTAINING.

I really enjoyed Dr Blum's classes. Although it is a difficult class, he made it enjoyable and easy to understand. He gives quizzes every week however if you do well the bump your grade. He grades very fair and enjoys teaching.

I love Mr. Blum! I took him for both A&P 1&2. His lectures are so fun because he knows how to joke and teach at the same time. Hes so easy to talk to and cares a lot about his students. Hes amazing and i would take him over and over again. I highly recommended. His tests arent easy but you have to study (obviously youre in college.) he curves!

I am glad I took his class. I found the course to be challenging but in a good way. There are weekly quizzes, unit exams, and a final exam. There is also weekly homework. It may seem like a lot to take in but it did help with understanding the concepts. I would definitely take him again.

Comment:

Professor Blum is amazing. He REALLY knows his stuff since he's an actively practicing chiropractor. He's easily accessible outside of the classroom and very approachable. I had him online for Pathophysiology and it wasn't so great, but in person he's amazing. If I could take him for all of my bio classes, I would choose him every time.

He was an amazing Professor! I am currently taking A&P 2 with a different Professor and honestly, I wish I wouldve had him again. Professor Blum really explains the material really well. He is funny, very respectful and cares about his students success.

Hes a tough professor, but a really amazing one. He knows his stuff, and cares about your success. Theres a lot of tests and quizzes, and they can be really tough so studying is mandatory. However, if you do your hw itll help you in the end. He flexes grades on tests to help everyone out and easy to talk to. Even lets you text him if you have ?s

He has been teaching this course for more than 50 times. He really knows the material and can teach it well. Since he teaches this course multiple times a semester, you can attend to another class if you miss a lecuture or quiz. He gives out quizez alot so you must attend to most of his classes. Good at what he does and I definitely recommend him

Let's face it, lectures are boring but Blum does everything he can to keep you on your feet with his single punch lines and stories. He hands out his personal phone number to make himself easily accessible. Exams are tough but you'd be surprise. I would absolutely enroll again.

He is a great teacher. He will go over info many times and he makes it interesting. He will make you laugh and he really cares that you succeed in his class. His tests are hard, but if you take good notes in class you won't need to use your book much. A&P is a tough class, but he made it fun and I think I did well due to his teaching.

Fantastic, enthusiastic and so knowledgeable. I would take another class with him in a heartbeat. He knows his material and when you're done with his course, so will you. Lectures are fabulous, could listen to him talk for hours. Gives outlines for chps so you know what to expect.

Dr. Blum is the man! Loved both anatomy I and II with him. He is funny, charismatic, and a very knowledgeable and approachable instructor. He has 2 degrees totaling around 16 years of college. He knows his stuff! Pick his brain and you will learn a ton! This class is a lot of studying and work if you want the A. Pay attention, commit and study!
